Can anyone help with an id or thoughts on this vase please?Bought in France, 11cm high, 15cm wide, blown, frilled, ground-out pontil, as you can see if I've managed to load the images properly.Strong texture.Not Ikea and not Loetz, but a nice vase. Anyone have ideas?Thanks in advance.

ps. Thanks again. From your lead, I've just been looking at Alfredo Villanueva-Collado's site "Loetz and Glass" and have solved another personal mystery. There's a picture of something very similar to my little crackle vase there - but also a cobalt ciselé ringer for a vase I've had and cherished for years.

I seem to have gone from no-Loetz to two

We don't do acerbic here - we just love looking at new glass The tag is to ensure new posters are welcomed.Have you checked out Loetz Mimosa just in case? - our posts crossed - nice you have two!

If you put a check in google images some should come up as there are a group of them in the 4 different colours, posted on Loetz.com I think. Could you do another shot side on with the crackle lit a little better to see the colours and iridescence please?That might help as the patterning of the crackle will show up more - more ideas maybe forthcoming.Thanksm
